Derty Sesh To Release New Album

Derty Sesh To Release New Album

Apology Accepted, the second album from Derty Sesh, one of New Zealand hip hop's most controversial rappers, is about to drop on Monday 20 February.

As an artist who always tries to push the limits, Derty Sesh found himself at the centre of a media storm due to the controversial video for his single Forever, from his 2010 debut album Sic Love.

The backlash to the video had a big impact on him and his follow-up album takes a more personal and introspective route where he tackles all of his personal issues with his trademark brutish honesty and raw emotional intensity.

"With this album I tried to answer a lot of questions surrounding me since the first album. The first album was an experiment, this album is me."

Apology Accepted is a fine showcase of Derty Sesh's lyrical skill, song-writing ability and production talent. The feature single Let Me Go marks the progression in maturity for this talented and hard working MC.

Some of the biggest names in Aotearoa hip hop and R&B feature on the album including Young Sid, Ethical (Kidz In Space), Sir T, Tyson Tyler, Jae'O and Erakah.
